**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed. Causes severe burns.Corrosive.Highly flammable.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye burns. May result in corneal injury. May cause
chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage.
Skin:
Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Causes skin burns. May cause
deep, penetrating ulcers of the skin. May cause contact dermatitis.
May cause cyanosis of the extremities. May cause skin rash (in milder
cases), and cold and clammy skin with cyanosis or pale color.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. May cause severe and permanent damage to the
digestive tract. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause
perforation of the digestive tract. Causes severe pain, nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea, and shock. May cause burns to the digestive
tract. Ingestion of large amounts may cause CNS depression. May cause
systemic effects.
Inhalation:
May cause irritation of the respiratory tract with burning pain in
the nose and throat, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and
pulmonary edema. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.
Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. Vapors may cause dizziness or
suffocation. May cause systemic effects. May cause burning sensation
in the chest.
Chronic:
No information found.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes
closed. Extensive irrigation with water is required (at least 30
minutes).
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated
clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated
shoes.
Ingestion:
Do NOT induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure to fresh air
immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply
artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device
such as a bag and a mask.
Notes to Physician:
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air.
Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. During a
fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal
decomposition or combustion. Will burn if involved in a fire. Use
water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may
explode in the heat of a fire. Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors
may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and
collect in low or confined areas. May polymerize explosively when
involved in a fire. May accumulate static electrical charges, and may
cause ignition of its own vapors. Containers may explode if exposed
to fire.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog, or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. Water may be ineffective. Do NOT get water inside
containers. For large fires, use water spray, fog or
alcohol-resistant foam. Do NOT use straight streams of water. Cool
containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is
out.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Use water spray to dilute spill to
a non-flammable mixture. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches
which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately, observing
precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Wear a self
contained breathing apparatus and appropriate Personal protection.
(See Exposure Controls, Personal Protection section). Scoop up with a
nonsparking tool, then place into a suitable container for disposal.
Use water spray to disperse the gas/vapor. Remove all sources of
ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Ground and bond
containers when transferring material. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion proof equipment. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or
vapor), and can be dangerous. Take precautionary measures against
static discharges. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid contact with
heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest or inhale. Use with adequate
ventilation. Discard contaminated shoes. Do not pressurize, cut,
weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to
heat, sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Do not store in direct sunlight. Keep container closed
when not in use. Keep from contact with oxidizing materials. Store in
a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Keep away from organic halogens. Flammables-area. Keep away from
acids.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low. Use adequate
general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations
below the permissible exposure limits.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical
safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European
Standard EN166.
Skin:
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin
exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.
Respirators:
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR ??1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant a respirator's use. Follow the OSHA
respirator regulations found in 29CFR 1910.134 or
European Standard EN 149. Always use a NIOSH or
European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when
necessary.
